Footage of Lori Loughlin's daughter saying having famous parents is a 'blessing' has resurfaced as it is revealed the mother sent a high-five emoji to the scheme's mastermind when learning they'd been successful.
Actress Loughlin and her designer husband Massimo Giannulli are accused in the biggest college acceptance scam in US history where 50 parents, coaches and associates connected to American colleges face prosecution as William 'Rick' Singer pleads guilty to racketeering among other offenses.
Documents reveal that 'on or about November 16, 2017, [Singer] sent the Giannullis an e-mail bearing the subject line, 'CONGRATULATIONS!!!' with their younger daughter's conditional acceptance letter attached.'
It's claimed Loughlin responded to Olivia Jade following in her elder daughter Isabella's footsteps and being accepted to University of Southern California, with: 'This is wonderful news! [High-Five Emoji].'
Lori Loughlin sent a high-five emoji to college acceptance scam mastermind Rick Singer when learning her daughter Olivia Jade got into USC, an affidavit states
Loughlin replied 'This is wonderful news! [High-Five Emoji]' in a November 2017 email
Several emoticons could be identified as the 'high-five emoji', whether the single splayed palm, two palms facing the viewer with the thumbs nearly touching, or palms pressed together. It's not clear exactly which emoticon Loughlin used when the transcript says she used a 'high-five emoji'.
The affidavit states Singer replied: 'Please continue to keep hush hush till March' and Loughlin responded: 'Yes, of course.'
According to documents, Loughlin and Giannulli allegedly emailed college cheating scandal mastermind William 'Rick' Singer in 2016 about their daughters' college prospects, stating that they wanted to do the necessary work to see that the girls got into USC as opposed to Arizona State University.
Federal prosecutors in Boston charged Singer, 58, with running the racketeering scheme through his Edge College & Career Network. His network served a roster of clients including actresses and chief executives.
If Loughlin's children were admitted to USC on one of Singer's alleged scams it means two other more deserving students may not have gotten in.
Footage of Lori Loughlin's daughter Olivia Jade saying having famous parents is a 'blessing'
In a February 2018 video, the Fuller House actress' daughter Olivia Jade said on her YouTube channel that coming from a successful family worked in her favor.
Speaking about growing up with well-known parents, the 19-year-old said it taught her to be wary of those who weren't genuine from early on.
'I remember I used to play soccer when I was little and there was this girl on my sister's soccer team … she just gave me the vibe that she wanted to be my sister's friend and my friend because of our mom,' Olivia said in the clip. 'And I just remember, when I was 8 years old, like, red flag. So I feel like it's almost a blessing. I can tell who actually wants to be my friend, which is cool, and it prepped me now for what I do, so I can see who's genuine.'
Olivia had been enjoying spring break on a yacht owned by Rick Caruso, the chairman of USC's Board of Trustees, when news of her mother's indictment broke.
Prosecutors said Singer's operation arranged for fake testers to take college admissions exams in place of his clients' children, and also bribed coaches to give admissions slots meant to be reserved for recruited athletes even if the applicants had no athletic ability.
Emails obtained by investigators revealed that it was soon decided that bribes would be paid to have the girls recruited onto the crew team, despite the fact that they did not participate in the sport. Photos were even taken of the girls on rowing machines.

It was then asked that a check be sent to Heinel for $50,000 from father Massimo Giannulli
Dr Donna Heinel, USC's senior associate athletic director, first presented Isabella as a potential athletic recruit and she was approved for conditional admission.
It was then asked that a check be sent to Heinel for $50,000 from Giannulli.
Isabella received her admission letter the following March, which was followed by another note requesting a donation of $200,000 to Key Worldwide Foundation.
This same exact process was then repeated with younger daughter Olivia, the documents claim.
Problems arose however when Olivia's guidance counselor became curious as to how she managed to receive admission based on her involvement in crew when she did not even row.
Then, at some point, there was a very heated and public altercation between Giannulli and the counselor, which elicited an email from Heinel asking that this not happen again in the future so as to avoid further detection.

Loughlin and Giannulli were later told by Singer to say they had given the $500,000 to the foundation to help 'underserved kids'.
At the same time, Loughlin complained that her daughter was having difficulty filling out her other college applications, prompting Singer to ask an employee to take care of the task.
The scheme involved parents paying bribes of up to $6million to get their children into these elite schools.
But everything began to fall apart in October 2018 when the IRS audited Key Worldwide and began to look into donations made by parents whose children were then admitted to USC.
Singer was charged with racketeering conspiracy, money laundering conspiracy and obstruction of justice.
He has pleaded guilty and faces 65 years behind bars.

Both parents have been released from custody after posting $1million bail.
But the former YouTube star was dropped by both Sephora and TRESemme last Thursday.
The teen cashed in on being student during her brief time at USC. She posted sponsored content for Amazon Prime on her Instagram account in September that featured an image of her inside her dorm room.
Olivia Jade has said in the past she was pressured to attend university by her mother and father.
'Mostly my parents really wanted me to go because both of them didn't go to college,' she said on the Zach Sang Show.
Later in that same interview, Olivia said of her father, founder of the Mossimo clothing label: 'He, like, built his whole entire brand and he wasn't actually, like - I don't know if I'm supposed to say this - ever enrolled in college.
'But he, like, faked his way through it and then he started his whole business with tuition money that his parents thought was going to college.
'That's, like, such a different time. I don't know if I was supposed to say that, but it's okay. So he started Mossimo then and it sold to Target. He was a baller.'

Actress Loughlin and her designer husband Massimo...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
